New tour sponsors include industry heavyweights Simonis, official cloth of the Pechauer West Coast Tour; Silver Cup chalk, official chalk of the tour; Accu-Stats Video Productions, official video of the tour; and Tiger Products with the new X-shaft, Tiger Paw, Jump-Break Tip, and Stack Wrap. "The Pechauer West Coast Tour is proud to have the opportunity to represent the promotion of these sponsors. We look forward to the challenge of another year!" commented Lingelbach, who then added, "We learned a lot from the first year and are ready to run fifty percent more stops in the upcoming season." With the continuous backing of title sponsor J. Pechauer Custom Cues and the official case of the tour, Joe Porper’s Creative Inventions, this year's tour events will be even bigger and better than the first year’s. Most of the events are anticipated to be $2,000 added, at least o­ne mid-year $5,000 added, with a $10,000-added finals. At the same time, The West Coast Pechauer Tour will be lowering entry fees across the board to encourage more participation from the local areas. "We want local pool enthusiasts to jump at the chance to participate in an event when it comes to town. It isn’t every day, as a pool lover, that you are able to go up against the likes of Jose Parica for three dollars per game!" said Lingelbach. "We think it is the best deal around!"
